 |
|
I've got this radio and would like to know what years/models this radio should be used on. I know the radio is 12volt and it works. Marked 11MX.
It's a Motorola and it's transistor powered, and has 3 tubes also. Only web reference says the Motorolas were made from years 55-63.
Thanks,
Ramblin Randy |

Radiomuseum.org is a good place to start.

Radiomuseum has a schamatic that notes: 1961 ?
Sams Photofact notes nothing.
About 10 years ago I bought a pickup load of 1960's car radios (over 300 units) and it's always fun tracking down application. Finding a new home for this vintage radio would be a good thing too.
Best info I've found is a little website on VW Radios...

| Did I mention this is a working radio... not bad for being 50+ years young. |
